While it gives you a bit of screen space, it totally fucks up formatting. I'm not sure I like a special purpose hack just for .[ch]. Just say no to variable width. If the screen gets tight, use a smaller font. --upas-kgmcooqmkqiwrsunnlvtiyerjs Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Disposition: inline Received: from plan9.cs.bell-labs.com ([135.104.9.2]) by plan9; Mon Oct 13 12:46:02 EDT 2003 Received: from mail.cse.psu.edu ([130.203.4.6]) by plan9; Mon Oct 13 12:46:00 EDT 2003 Received: by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server, from userid 60001) id 01B8D19BA3; Mon, 13 Oct 2003 12:45:26 -0400 (EDT) Received: from psuvax1.cse.psu.edu (psuvax1.cse.psu.edu [130.203.16.6]) by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server) with ESMTP id 6B3F219B81; Mon, 13 Oct 2003 12:45:12 -0400 (EDT) X-Original-To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu Delivered-To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu Received: by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server, from userid 60001) id 64A0A19B86; Mon, 13 Oct 2003 12:44:12 -0400 (EDT) Received: from sargazos.escet.urjc.es (sargazos.escet.urjc.es [212.128.4.206]) by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server) with ESMTP id 7DE19199D3 for <9fans@cse.psu.edu>; Mon, 13 Oct 2003 12:44:00 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <78c8dcc36f0d69277327f9fa45164246@plan9.escet.urjc.es> To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu From: Fco.J.Ballesteros MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: [9fans] acme fonts Sender: 9fans-admin@cse.psu.edu Errors-To: 9fans-admin@cse.psu.edu X-BeenThere: 9fans@cse.psu.edu X-Mailman-Version: 2.0.11 Precedence: bulk Reply-To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu List-Id: Fans of the OS Plan 9 from Bell Labs <9fans.cse.psu.edu> List-Archive: Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2003 18:43:59 +0200 X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0.0 required=5.0 tests=none version=2.55 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.55 (1.174.2.19-2003-05-19-exp) Hi, we changed acme to use fixed font for anything named *.[ch...] and var font otherwise.
